Riversaver groups and network (Danube River Basin)
Fighting river plastic pollution requires teamwork—by adopting river sections with local schools, NGOs, and communities, you can keep shores clean, reconnect with nature, and inspire change, while also engaging decision-makers through Plastic Cup’s proven roundtable method.
You cannot do it alone! This is especially true for tackling plastic pollution of rivers. While facing the polluted shores of rivers alone is a terrible and shocking experience, in community the cleanups can be uplifting and motivating actions that we can be the change! By involving local schools and NGOs, you can facilitate adoption of river shores. What does it mean? By adopting a river section, you pledge to keep it clean and visit it regularly. By doing so, not only the river shore will be clean, but the involved peers will get closer contact to the nature and thus get an escape from the rat race and relax. Find and connect likeminded people in the Danube River Basin to share experiences, exchange knowledge and join forces for clean rivers. We can provide you handguides and protocols to fast track and enhance your commitment! Of course, plastic pollution of rivers is more complex then just citizens could solve, therefore it is essential to involve decision makers and different sectors of industry and policy. We have the solution: organize a roundtable discussion by using the proved methodology of Plastic Cup! Here is the recipe!
